Clay, I am truly sorry that they couldn't pull it off, but what a valiant effort. They have great management and with Bird making a couple of good moves this off-season, I see you guys at the very top of the EC heap next season.
Yeah, you always hate to see your favorite team lose. It would have been great to see them continue to defy the odds but all good things must come to an end. :) Reggie Miller is a unique player and person. He's really the last of the NBA greats of yesterday. Yep, Bird and Donnie will make some good moves I'm sure...they'd better, Reggie will be tough to replace in more ways than one.

If you are ever in L.A. go to Pauly Pavillion at UCLA and you will se him in pick up games for at least the next 5 years during the off season. Reggie is a gym rat and will always be. He will continue to enjoy schooling the up and comers for some time. Those pick up games are some of the greatest street ball this side of Ruckers.

I wouldn't consider him one of the "greatest" of all time, but there certainly are few others you'd want with the ball in their hands with less than 10 seconds on the clock and you're in need of a clutch shot.

I would. He's a consistent threat on the court, and could hold his own against people like Jordan, Kobe Bryant, etc....
Goodbye Reggie! Thanks for all of what you're done! (salute)

Wow, you have some high standards. I am surprised that this partial list of accomplishments doesn't meet your standards for "one of the greatest":

One of the greatest in my opinion, on the court and off. Gave so much to the game and to the fans. Not a Pacers fan but have deep respect for one of the best clutch players in NBA history. His feud with Spike Lee was classic. lol
One of the greatest clutch players certainly and up there with the rest.
I don't consider him one of the greatest of all time because he was too one-dimensional but he will be missed all the same.
The next big name on the list of lads who will retire is Shaq I think.
He bridges the gap from the Jordan era to the current era.
